The JPH, with a list like that you might like Deftones. Early Smashing Pumpkins might also appeal. If you like Tool, you might want to also investigate Porcupine Tree, who are an excellent band.

So anyway, I've been investigating heavy metal bands a lot lately and was wondering if anyone could recommend some to me. At the moment, I'm mostly enjoying Black Sabbath, Judas Priest, Budgie, Metallica, Slayer, Rage Against the Machine, Opeth, Death and Slough Feg.

Hmm well let's see.

If you like Black Sabbath you'll most likely enjoy doom metal bands like:

Cathedral
Candlemass
Pentagram

Metallica and Slayer:

Kreator
Sepultura
Exodus
Overkill

Judas Priest:

Nevermore
Communic
Iron Maiden (obviously)
Saxon
Accept

Rage Against the Machine:

WarsawpacK (not technically a metal band, but best described as if RATM took a chill pill)
Rehab (again not really metal, but a good blend of hip hop and rock)

Opeth:

In Vain
Cynic
Bloodbath
In Mourning

Death:

Control Denied
Atheist
Obituary
Carcass (their later work like Heartwork and Swansong
Morbid Angel

Slough Feg (Good choice BTW):

Devin Townsend

Slough Feg is a pretty unique band with not a lot of similar sounding artists, but if you like them then you definitely need to check out Devin Townsend.
